Write for Capital Letter

We welcome articles, essays, book or software reviews, and information tidbits. We also sometimes need regular columnists. It's fun to see your name in print and a great way to gain recognition. It's also a great writing sample.

Review a Chapter Event

We sometimes need reviewers for certain chapter events. Reviewers who have been confirmed in advance are eligible for free admission to an event in exchange for writing a review of that event.

Please note:

  • We do not feature reviews of Knowledge University (hands-on training) seminars, so we do not offer free or reduced admission to those seminars.
  • Reviewers are confirmed and entitled to free event admission only after receiving a confirmation e-mail message from the Managing Editor of Capital Letter. Each reviewer must bring a printed copy of the e-mail message to the event and show it to the registration volunteer.
